Column Sort on JTable outside selection out of bounds index exception

[Redefine12]

I've got a gui including text fields and a jtable. I've added a sort function that takes values from the text fields. I've also included a mouse listener to take get the row values from the jtable to display in a detail tab. If the row selection contains different values from the parameters of the sorter, I receive error. I.e. if the row selected isn't returned by the sort parameter. I'll post code and error below. Is there a way to get around this, even if it's just clearing the mouse row selection? Or setting it to the first row of the sort selection? Where would you implement a work-around? I've seen that this is a documented bug in java.

//Mouse Event Listener for Row Selection into Detail Tab		
	Object o;
	Object[] dtlist = new Object[53];
	public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {

		   int maxRows = 0;
		   
		   Object value;
		   if (!e.getValueIsAdjusting()) {       
			   
		     selRows = table.getSelectedRow();
		     row = selRows;
		     row = table.convertRowIndexToModel(row); 
		     // get Table data
		     TableModel tm = table.getModel();
		     if (row > -1) {
		        for (int i= 1; i < 53 ; i++) {
		          value = tm.getValueAt(row,i);
		          dtlist[i-1]  = value;
		         //Test-print Values retrieved by mouse listener
		         //System.out.println("Selection : " + value );
		          }
		        //get test value in array dtlist
		        o = Array.get(dtlist, 1);
		        System.out.println("o: "+o);
		        //Key Fields
		        dtECN.setText((String) Array.get(dtlist, 4));
		        dtCust.setText((String) Array.get(dtlist, 1));
		        dtMod.setText((String) Array.get(dtlist, 2));
		        dtSer.setText((String) Array.get(dtlist, 3));
		        dtNom.setText((String) Array.get(dtlist, 5));
//etc

//sf is the text field

        sf.getDocument().addDocumentListener
        (  
        		   new DocumentListener()  
        		   {
        		      public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e)  
        		      {  
        		          newFilter();  
        		      }  
        		      public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e)  
        		      {  
        		          newFilter();  
        		      }  
        		      public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e)  
        		      {  
        		         newFilter();  
        		      }  
        		   }  
        		);

	 private void newFilter()  
	 {  
		 
		 RowFilter<TableModel, Object> firstFilter = null;
		 RowFilter<TableModel, Object> secondFilter = null;
		 List<RowFilter<TableModel,Object>> filters = new ArrayList<RowFilter<TableModel,Object>>();
		 RowFilter<TableModel, Object> compoundRowFilter = null;
		 try {
		     firstFilter = RowFilter.regexFilter("^" + sf.getText(), 1);
		     secondFilter = RowFilter.regexFilter("^" +sf2.getText(), 2);
		     filters.add(firstFilter);
		     filters.add(secondFilter);
		     compoundRowFilter = RowFilter.andFilter(filters); // you may also choose the OR filter

Thank you db.

I've tried adjusting the document listener to clear selection values and am still receiving the error. Feeling very lost as to how to proceed with this problem.

        sf.getDocument().addDocumentListener
        (  
        		   new DocumentListener()  
        		   {
        			  
        			   
        		      public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e)  
        		      {   	
        		    	  //table.removeRowSelectionInterval(selRows, selRows);
        		    	  //table.removeRowSelectionInterval(row, row);
        		    	  if(selRows > 1 || row > 1){
        		    	  table.clearSelection();
        		    	  }
        		    	  newFilter();  
        		      }  
        		      public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e)  
        		      {  
        		    	  //table.removeRowSelectionInterval(selRows, selRows);
        		    	  //table.removeRowSelectionInterval(row, row);
        		    	  if(selRows > 1 || row > 1){
        		    	  table.clearSelection();
        		    	  }
        		          newFilter();  
        		      }  
        		      public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e)  
        		      {  
        		    	 //table.removeRowSelectionInterval(selRows, selRows);
        		    	 //table.removeRowSelectionInterval(row, row); 
        		    	  if(selRows > 1 || row > 1){
        		    	  table.clearSelection();
        		    	  }
        		         newFilter();  
        		      }  
        		   }  
        		);

1. What's on line 590?
2. What does JTable#getSelectedRow() return when no row is selected? Where do you test for that?

[Redefine12]

public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {

		   Object value;
		   if (!e.getValueIsAdjusting()) {       
			   
		     selRows = table.getSelectedRow(); // <<line 590
		     row = selRows;
		     row = table.convertRowIndexToModel(row); 
		     // get Table data
		     TableModel tm = table.getModel();
		     if (row > -1) {
		        for (int i= 1; i < 53 ; i++) {

I'm not sure how to test for this. From the behavior I observe when I run the application:
- If a row is NOT selected, the the sort does not cause an error.
- If the row selected is not within the parameters defined by the sort, an error results.

The angle I'm looking at now is removing the selection prior to begining a sort using table.clearSelection(); I've tried various iterations of this, altering the selection model, etc all to no avail.

ok, test printing values for row and selRows:

	Object o;
	Object[] dtlist = new Object[53];
	public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {

		   Object value;
		   if (!e.getValueIsAdjusting()) {       
			   
		     selRows = table.getSelectedRow();
		     row = selRows;
		     row = table.convertRowIndexToModel(row); 
		     // get Table data
		     TableModel tm = table.getModel();
		     if (row > -1) {
		        for (int i= 1; i < 53 ; i++) {
		          value = tm.getValueAt(row,i);
		          dtlist[i-1]  = value;
		         //Test-print Values retrieved by mouse listener
		         //System.out.println("Selection : " + value );
		          }
		        //get test value in array dtlist
		        o = Array.get(dtlist, 1);
		        System.out.println("o: "+o);
		        System.out.println(selRows);
		        System.out.println(row);

These are printing what I expect..

[Redefine12]

Sorry for all the posts but this is driving me crazy and I'm very anxious to solve. I believe its failing on

row = table.convertRowIndexToModel(row);

I implemented this to preseve integrity of the detail data view when the rows are sorted. I.e. without rowindextomodel, the detail data will show a different record after sorting because the clicked row index in the VIEW is not the index of the record in the actual table. I commented out this portion and I don't recieve the error, but now, as predicted, the clicked row is not the row in the original data model. I can't compromise either!

From the Oracle docs: "The previous example assumes you have not enabled filtering. If you have enabled filtering convertRowIndexToView will return -1 for locations that are not visible in the view. "

This would explain the exception.. But how to get around this!?
